My systems are secure, and I am building the company around any market fluctuation.I'm my own boss, and it ROCKS. ( I'm intentionally leaving out the all the extreme stress, mistakes, heartaches, and rock bottoms in this post. )  So if you want the reality check, I will post that in the Bigger Pockets Realty Check Stories section.
